Tubes® Rapid-Release Technology FirstSpear is in the business of providing innovative solutions to long unanswered challenges. Our Tubes™ technology reaffirms that position. The common closure method for most armor carriers on the market today is to join the cummerbund in the front with hook & loop fasteners. This presents many performance failures. The hook & loop adds weight and bulk, is noisy and wears out quickly, retains water, mud and snow. From a safety standpoint the hook and loop closure flap allows for cummerbund protection accessories like side plates and inflatable flotation to shift position and misalign from where they should be to provide maximum performance. The common release mechanisms found in vests utilize a variety of cables, routed through a complex maze of channels. When assembled correctly these can be clumsy, heavy, awkward and complicated to reassemble, if assembled incorrectly the results can be catastrophic. FirstSpear Tubes Rapid-Release Technology solved all these challenges. Quick to close and even quicker to doff, Tubes fasteners are manufactured from lightweight high-performance polymers that exceed the strength of other molded fasteners currently used on operational equipment. Molded in signature suppressive colors and with a variety of choices for activation, this closure system can be rapidly deployed and completely reassembled in SECONDS. Let FirstSpear show you how Tubes technology will improve performance, enhance mission functionality, reduce weight and allow you to ditch the cable. U.S. Patent No. 10051984
